I hope not. This is a bargaining position. Some points: 1. Colorado was, is, and remains in the future committed to the Union. 2. Colorado has no access to the sea but most downstream neighbors do, to which Colorado needs access. Worst case, these downstream partners can use desalination to obtain drinking water. War is always a choice for them. Colorado has no such choice. 3. Colorado is reasonable. We still need these United States to be at least somewhat self sufficient in food production. All I am asking is Colorado doesn't suffer alone while downstream neighbors waste water. 4. As a matter of principle, the water belongs to Colorado. Downstream partners must recognize this. Alternatively, they must realize we have a right to audit their water use. All of this is my personal (uneducated, unqualified) opinion and does not reflect the will of the people of Colorado. Please correct me if you think I am wrong.
